Good evening and welcome to our LIVE coverage of tonight's vital Group I qualifier between France and Spain in Paris. Kick-off at 8pm!

Menez has some space on the left, he cuts inside but loses momentum and Spain can regroup with eleven men behind the ball.

Yohan Cabaye is replaced by Jeremy Menez for France.

Xavi hits a free kick from 25 yards, but it hits the wall.

Matuidi is now booked, and he will miss the Georgia game alonside Cabaye. Problems in midfield for France in September.

France are giving away needless free-kicks here when trying to desperately get the ball back in possession.

When will Deschamps make his move? Something needs to change here.

Navas looks extremely bright here, another cross finds it's way to Iniest in a dangerous position, but Spain decide to retain possession.

Chance for France now! It's end to end stuff here - Matuidi is given the ball by Ribery in some space, but his low shot is saved by Valdes.

Another chance for Spain, Navas makes a lively start, getting to the byline to find his cross met by Pedro, who balloons his shot over.

Spain will love this now. France have to attack, and Cabaye's shot from 35 yards goes harmlessly wide and over.

David Villa is replaced by Jesus Navas. Navas was about to come on before the goal, but was Villa due to come off? The goal may have changed that.

Monreal got in behind France there, and his drilled cross just about evaded Varane, and despite Lloris' best efforts, Pedro's touch inside the six yard box was just enough to get it over the line.

GOAL SPAIN: Pedro scores! He might have had a penalty, but he's got a goal here now. He scrambles the ball home after Nacho Monreal's superb play at the byline.

Make that 50. Benzema's header from Valbuena's free-kick goes a yard wide. He took a knock on the head there from Busquets.

Big stat here: Opta tell us that Karim Benzema has failed to score in his last 49 shots for France.

CHANCE FOR SPAIN! Great save from Lloris to deflect away Iniesta's snapshot at goal. Another real chance and Spain are finding some space in front of goal.

France's next qualifier is in September away to Georgia.

Cabaye fouls Busquets, he's waving his finger as to say it's undeserved. Cabaye is now suspended for France's next qualifier.

Villa is nearly put through by Xavi and goes down under pressure. No appeals this time for a penalty.

Valbuena's dangerous crossed is punched clear by Valdes. It looked as though a French head was going to get to that, but it's decent goalkeeping from the Barcelona man.

Neat play from Ribery releases Evra, and it's a corner to France.
